Answer 1

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

$a_{n}$ = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 10 and d = - 3, hence

$a_{n}$ = 10 - 3(n - 1) = 10 - 3n + 3 = - 3n + 13, so

$a_{n}$ = - 3n + 13 ← n th term formula
